We need to ban assault rifles & ammo in CO NOW not 70 bodies and 700 wounded and disabled victims later. Victims have the right not to be shot more than the shooters have a right to be idiots. Second amendment had no prescience that ‘arming’ individuals would bypass the military and become testosterone on steroids. Again and Again and Again.

If only corporations giving money had to be as transparent as politicians receiving it. We need the DISCLOSE Act!
